1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundInfluence on stem cells' angiogenesis and osteogenesis of NAD(P)H Quinone Dehydrogenase 1(NQO1) has been established, but its impact on dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) is unexplored. An important strategy for the treatment of arteriosclerosis is to inhibit calcium deposition and to promote vascular repair and angiogenesis. This study investigated the function and mechanism of NQO1 on angiogenesis and osteogenesis of DPSCs, so as to provide a new ideal for the treatment of arteriosclerosis.

methodsCo-culture of human DPSCs and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) was used to detect the angiogenesis ability. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, alizarin red staining (ARS), and transplantation of HA/tricalcium phosphate with DPSCs were used to detect osteogenesis.

resultsNQO1 suppressed in vitro tubule formation, migration, chemotaxis, and in vivo angiogenesis, as evidenced by reduced CD31 expression. It also enhanced ALP activity, ARS, DSPP expression and osteogenesis and boosted mitochondrial function in DPSCs. CoQ10, an electron transport chain activator, counteracted the effects of NQO1 knockdown on these processes. Additionally, NQO1 downregulated MAPK signaling, which was reversed by CoQ10 supplementation in DPSCs-NQO1sh.

conclusionsNQO1 inhibited angiogenesis and promoted the osteogenesis of DPSCs by suppressing MAPK signaling pathways and enhancing mitochondrial respiration.
